Your tag here.

Last time I checked, Thunderbird couldn't do that.

I typically use IMAP accounts, but for POP3, there is a setting to "Leave messages on server".

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The question wasn't leave vs. delete messages (which every POP client I know of can do), but delete some messages while leaving others.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yup. Thunderbird is all or nothing on that score.

Thanks amych (and DX). That was in fact my question.

Our wings are not tired

I just realized I now have eight computers at home. I might be a geek.

I'm at I think 10 or 11 fuctional, and add another half a dozen that are of unknown function. This is after I got rid of at least half a dozen last December and I've sold at least 3 this year too.

Hey. New board.

I give up my geek cred. You guys win.

Of course, at the moment I've only got 1 computer, an xbox, and a treo. Not an all-time geek high for me, by any stretch.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have 5 computers at home (2 of which I use on a daily basis), 2 PDAs (one I will resell soon), tivo, external hard drive.

I am not sure where I am on the geek scale.

I own five theremins with a sixth on the way. Do I win?

I think it's a safe bet that you own more theremins than any of us. But do any of them run linux?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think it's a safe bet that you own more theremins than any of us.

Actually, I think it's a safe bet that he owns more than all of us.
